"I love working behind the scenes but my job is on the stage" - Jarred Cole still dreams of PDC ProTour despite MODUS spotter role
MODUSTuesday, 06 May 2025 at 15:00
Jarred Cole was known as a very big talent in youth. The Englishman won the youth tournament of the Finder Masters and also won two tournaments on the PDC Development Tour. However, a PDC Tour Card remains a dream for now, although he is certainly not giving up.

Cole currently still works alongside darts, although his work is also related to darts. "I moved down here about two years ago and I was looking for work as I'd moved down from where I was from. Long story short, I was invited to give it a go as a trial shift. I've always been good with my maths so it was something they thought I'd be good at and well I seem to have settled in quite well. It can be quite difficult if you get players like Brian Raman it's certainly a difficult one. Good luck spotting bull, double 16, bullseye. It has its moments," Cole laughed.
"I love working behind the scenes but my job is on the stage," continued the 24-year-old. "I wouldn't say it's been a straight forward road. There's been a lot of success, there's been a lot of highs and downs. In the long run, I want to make it more ups and downs and progress and make it onto the tour full time."
"Q-School's been a mixed up and down. I've beaten some of the players that are now on tour and unfortunately it never happened for me to get my tour card but I've been close so many times. Ultimately the Aaron Beeney one was in my own hands."

Lakeside
Cole was also active at the 2022 WDF World Championship, where he made it to the third round. "it was incredible. When I first qualified it was a dream come true. It was a massive bucket list thing for me to say I've played at Lakeside and experienced it. I can't put it into words. The atmosphere that is built and the legacy can't be changed."

In preparation for another attempt at Q-School, Cole occasionally plays in the MODUS Super Series. "Next January I want to go to Q-School as fit and ready to play as possible. I want to be in the best place mentally and physically. It is a long week. It's a very aggressive week, it's do or die almost."

- I agree that this season the format was a bit stale, it would be better to have some new faces rotated in through the season. I also think they should vary the format a bit as it doesn't count for rankings, they could have different varieties of 501 (e.g. double start) or just different challenges.mikedarts03-07-2026
- I don't really understand why its an issue that Littler doesn't play in the events, they are barely televised so there is no draw for marketing and it gives the other players a better chance to define their narratives. The events are more of a throw back to old events. I agree that the format should be looked at, I don't know why they don't do a more interesting format or vary it through the season to improve interestmikedarts03-07-2026
- This shows they have the prize money structure wrong then (and OoM as a result). Put more £ into the floor, less on the TV and you'll attract more players to attend more often.BandB03-07-2026
- He's admitted his mistakes. He won't be the first or last player to get sent down,or take drugs. I honestly didn't like the lad,but at least he's owning up to his issues. So,good luck. In whatever he decides to dorick6702-07-2026
- Not everyone wants to watch pub players throwing 70 averages for about £500. Premier League is indeed a cash cow, but it does its job of promoting the game. This new suggestion for changes is one of the better ones. Even better if everyone knew what they had to do to qualify and it isn't just a walk-on popularity contest.StraightArrowNoBull01-07-2026
- I have a suggestion,scrap the whole thing. It's a pointless cash cow for anyone in the top 10.rick6730-06-2026
- Well nobody made him bet!! It's his own fault,if wants to lose money,then he shouldn't call Gerwyn out! He averaged 103,I would think the losing betting idiot could average 40! If you don't want to risk losing,keep your money in your pocket!rick6728-06-2026
- A great female line up this year, it would be nice to see Gemma win, but Beau is too good. Although the most important lady is missing....Lorraine Winstanley! You can't have a major tournament with out Lorraine Winstanley!! My dream is to see Lorraine hit a nine darter, run off the stage and out of the building with Dean.richieburnettrocks25-06-2026
- Laura looking fantastic and obviously has a hidden talent as a dart player. It was so nice to see her shock and joy of hitting that triple 20 I miss Laura, she was excellent and very knowledgeable regarding darts. Can you imagine that dozy wooden air head Emma Paton from SKY being able to do that, she'd hold the dart the wrong way round.richieburnettrocks25-06-2026
